Fast Food Dreams: The McWhopper Proposal

In honour of Peace Day, September 21st, Burger King is inviting McDonald's to team up to create the McWhopper — a burger built for world peace. If they say yes, we’ll mark this ‘burger wars” cease fire with a one day pop-up McWhopper shop in Atlanta on Peace Day, halfway between our two headquarters.The New York Times and The Chicago Tribune have been running ads for Burger King goading McDonalds into the McProposal. The Burger King himself has asked Ronald McDonald for all a truce and make this food marriage happen. The goal of this campaign is to to operate one restaurant for one day staffed by employees of both companies and selling a burger called the McWhopper, a blend of the Big Mac and the Whopper, the best-selling burgers at McDonald’s and Burger King.
